At the last meeting of the T.
C. Cain Chapter, U. D. C. ar-
rangments were made for the un-
veiling and dedicating ot our
Confederate Monument at Bas-
trop, on Saturday Oct. 8th,
the birthday of Senator Reagan.
An appropriate progr i will be
given, and we expect this to be a
great day for Bastrop. There
has never been such an occassion
before and there may never be
such again. The Daughters of
the Confederacy have worked for
more than two years for this,
and it is u matter of pride and
gratification that they will be able
to do hwir to the memory of gal-
lant soldsers of t he late war. On
this occasion, every citizen of the
county and all other people who
may desire to be with us, will
have a cordia1 welcome; the J.
D. Sayers Camp U. C. V. and
all vetserans and their families are
especially invited.
Although we lack a small
amount of 'the sum needed to
dedioate the Monument free of
debt, we feel sure this will be on
hand. There will be some ex-
pens*. incident to the exercises
on tbe 8th- it may be that some
of our people who have net as
yet #iven.f.nything to this cause,
may be generous enough to con-
tribute so-nethinfc now. that the
Chrpter may have no further
annety in this matter. A
smttll amrmnt from each of sever-
al people would do the work.
*Ar.y donations may be left with
Mr. VV.7. Miley, who will re-
ce.pt for them and deposit same
for us. The ladies themselves
ht.ve pledged certain amounts
and thry need help to enable
them ti satisfactorily complete
all arrangements for the dedi
cation. All who have subscribed
to this fund will oblige us by
paying same to Mr W. J. Miley,
cr to fcke President of the Chap
ter, as we shall need the money
before the 8th of Oct.
We wish to most sincerely
thank the many who have assist-
ed us and made it possible for us
to do a work that has been a
labor of love for us, and shall be
an honor to our town and county.

express our sincere gratitude to
the good people of Bastrop for
their kindness, help and sympa-
thy in the recent serious illness
of our niece. Miss Helen Rarnage.
We can never repay the many
kindnesses shown us, but we
assure >ou one and all that we
sincerely appreciate all the kind
words of sympathy spoken or
otherwise expressed, and the
many kind and gracious deeds
which assisted our loved one to
regain her health.
